I am trying to locate a quantity of teh M3x14 step screws for the savage steering linkage. I cant find any. Teh only ones i find want like $3 for a screw, and teh way i loose these things (tried lock tite, RTV silicon, htey keep working out) I need a quantity, like 25 so i always have them. there must be an industrial supplier where i can buy these online in quanty. Then way I C it they shouldnt be more than $0.25-0.50 a piece.

i dont know if these guys have what you need but try it
www.microfasteners.com
if they dont try contacting the guy from rcscrewz.com
they make a lot of the kits you see on ebay and maybe they can do you a custom package with some of your favorite sizes.

no not at moment. It is half bushing/spacer (unthreaded and thicker) the tip is threaded. They call it a STEP SCREW. Im about ready to just order some M3x14 and some ferrels and do it that way.
The thick part rides in the steering arms going to servo and the threaded end connects to the frontsteering linkage. imagine a screw with a straw half the length slid on it, but it all solid metal.
